[QUOTE="mj claz, post: 263354, member: 1801"] Just want to point out that Pat Narduzzi's Pitt defense gave up an ACC record 580 yards passing this weekend and ranks 120th in yards/pass despite having arguably the nation's best pass rusher in Ejuan Price. Pat Narduzzi--probably a top 3 DC while at Michigan state. Duke ranks 114th in passing defense after finishing 20th in 2014 (with the same D coordinator). We ranked 74th in yards/play in 2012 under Dave Wommack and Ole Miss ranked 7th in 2014 under Dave Wommack. Auburn finished in 72nd in total defense last year despite paying Will Muschamp $1.7 million. This year (coincidentally while true sophomore Carlton Davis becomes one of the best CBs in the nation and Carl Lawson is healthy and one of the best DEs in the nation) they are a top 25 defense without him. If anyone thinks we are going to get someone better than Narduzzi or Muschamp then all I can say is you are truly delusional. You are also truly delusional if you think that we've got good talent on D this year. Not to throw anyone under the bus and I like the way young guys are developing, but we are just not great compared to other ACC teams. Everyone can agree we had some atrocious defense against UNC, but so did FSU, a team loaded with talent. We gave up 9 yards/play, they gave up 7.7 yards/play. Who is FSU's DC? Charles Kelly. Not saying Kelly is a great DC, but he was almost our DC!! If we get rid of Roof, we are going to end up with someone like this! I am not happy with the D, but it is very evident that Roof seems to be one of our best recruiters and his defenses have shown flashes when guys can make plays (Gotsis playing great vs FSU last year/DL and Austins vs VT this year). Roof has been here for 4 years now and he is at a point where he has been able to establish relationships with recruits for a few years and now it is finally starting to pay off. Go look at our 2011 or 2013 recruiting classes on D. Those classes have killed us. We haven't had star-studded classes in 2014-2016, but they have certainly been solid and something to build off of. Next year we will be bringing in four 4-star defenders when you include Jordan Woods returning from injury, and the 2017 class isn't done yet. We've got guys like 4 star LBs Leonard Warner and Kendric Haynes saying they really really like Roof. It would be very short-sighted to fire Roof because of a bad year. The last thing we need right now is to forfeit the continuity we have built and have a new DC potentially start all over without some of these '17 recruits [/QUOTE]
